did not say a word." Then, followed another pair by writing "She went on doing something on her smart phone."
Another pair added "The same thing happened the following day." Sentences of the pairs followed each other: "Mr.
Hopkins got angrier and angrier but nothing changed.", "Mary kept looking at her smart phone.", "One day, when
Mr. Hopkins came in, Mary hugged him and said 'Daddy, we are not desperate! Mum will walk again, hooray!' ",
"Mr. Hopkins just looked and asked how that could happen.", "I shared the problem on a health forum and asked for
help.", "People recommended some doctors and I contacted one of them.", "He read the reports and told me about
a new cure.", "I made an appointment. Can you take us there?", "They went there and her mother recovered.", "Mr.
Hopkins apologized to Mary for being rude to her about the smart phone." and fi nally, the last sentence was written
on the board: "If you use them for cooperation at the right time, smart phones and social media are great, dad."
Ms. Ritto was amazed. She didn’t know what to say. She asked the students how they had managed to
create such a nice story without any serious preparation. One of the students admitted that it was a story
from the literature class. They all laughed and she congratulated her students before she left the classroom.
